Mom,

I'm gonna miss the great times we had, and all the memories we made throughout the last 36 years! You made me laugh until I cried sometimes and never EVER failed to be right there when I called for help. You were the very best friend a girl and her boys could ask for and I will love you forever! We're all relieved that you are no longer in pain and you won't ever be again… FLY HIGH MAMA! WE LOVE YOU!
